        This function is used to send data on the stream socket. The function
        call will block until one or more bytes of the data has been sent successfully,
        or an until error occurs.

    <p>
        The send operation may not transmit all of the data to the peer. Consider
        using the <a class="link" href="../../write.html" title="write"><code class="computeroutput"><span
            class="identifier">write</span></code></a>
        function if you need to ensure that all data is written before the blocking
        operation completes.
